Message From HOD Desk

Computer Science is a relatively young discipline of research. Still, the first roots of computers as machines that enhance our own thinking go back more than a century. Alan Turing set the mathematical foundations of computing with the concept of Turing Machines. Turing was not only a brilliant theoretician, but also looked at very practical applications, such as for cryptanalysis (you might have watched the movie The Imitation Game; Turing is also considered a pioneer of Artificial Intelligence, an area that has gained much attention recently, not only within the research community, but also in the daily news. Think about self-driving cars, AI-driven medical diagnostics and personal health, face identification, or natural language understanding. John von Neumann was a brilliant mathematician, who developed the concepts of cellular automata, the universal constructor, and was a pioneer in digital computer architecture. We are still talking about the von Neumann architecture as the forefather of modern chips, which are now at the heart of our modern-time computers: think of smart phones, tablets, or smart watches.
